Both teams end up having to use position players on the mound when a game between the Orioles and Red Sox goes deep into extra innings. O’s manager Buck Showalter turns to DH Chris Davis to take the mound in the 16th inning with the score tied at 6 – 6. Davis gives him a pair of scoreless innings, somewhat compensating for a brutal 0-for-8 game at the plate. The Sox face the same quandary in the top of the 17th, and turn to OF Darnell McDonald. Things don’t go so well, however, as he surrenders a three-run homer to Adam Jones; he then grounds into a double play against Davis to end the game in the bottom of the frame. Davis is the winner in the 9 – 6 Baltimore win, and McDonald the loser; it is the first time both teams use position players to pitch in the same game since October 4, 1925, when future Hall of Famers George Sisler and Ty Cobb both got to pitch on the last day of the season.

1978 – Toronto’s Dave McKay and Otto Velez each hit two doubles in one inning during a 24 – 10 rout of Baltimore. With the score 19 – 6 following a homer by Lee May, Earl Weaver brings in OF Larry Harlow to pitch to the Blue Jays. Harlow gets two batters out in the 5th, then walks three in a row and hurls a wild pitch. He then allows a single, a walk, and a grand slam by John Mayberry makes the score 24 – 6. Bullpen catcher Ellie Hendricks then relieves Harlow and gives up just a walk and no runs in 2 1/3 innings. Closer Don Stanhouse takes over in the 8th.
